resale value of a stripped scirocco

[Marc Getty <marc@getty.net>]

I think that Jean-Claude summed it up well: it's now a niche market car. Just
think, have you ever seen any car without an interior for sale at a used car
lot? I sure have not!

The value of the car has not changed much, you have merely decreased the number
of potential buyers.

  Was it street before?

  At the very least, you have turned it into a smaller niche market car.

  Are you racing it?
